Nice, it sounds like this is what I am looking for, I'm definitely going to order now! From what I read the routine are 20-30 minutes each, which fits perfectly with my schedule. Are you still using TRX?

 

I love it! You are a very good inspiration! Keeping fit is a lifestyle that is very hard to maintain, especially when you work full time and have other obligations. I've never tried bootcamp, a co-worker does them and she likes it. I just don't think I could make a 5am class in City Park!

I just ordered the TRX home gym bundle, it comes with digital downloads. I am excited about using this and getting my body stronger! Like you I've basically relied on cardio (running) and PiYo. I need to strengthen in addition to the stretching.

 

I received my TRX home gym on Friday. It is so easy to set up and use, simply use the door anchor and go

I did the total body video workout - 30 minutes with 6 minutes stretching afterward. There are 16 exercised in the routine which include:

Step Forward Lunge With T-Fly
Lunge
Hamstring Curl
Crossing Balance Lunge
Atomic Pushup with Crunch
Low Row
Overhead Squat
Pike (abs)
Side Plank
Chest Stretch
Lower Back Stretch

I can tell you I am already addicted! I can definitely see where this will get my body strong enough to carry me 26.2 miles

 

You can order it through Amazon, but I went through TRX:

I'm going to do full body again tonight. My legs are in reasonably good condition from running but I can def use with more hip strengthening to prevent knee injury. My upper body strength is not good at all and I am feeling it today, but it's one of those "hurts so good" feelings

 

Been doing a lot better these days.
-No dairy
-No red meats
-No soft-drink/soda/pop unless out drinking or at a special event
-Meat is only consumed twice a week
-Low sugar
-Only alchohol consumed is vodka
-High fibre
-Working out 4-5x a week minimum
-One day of fasting and one day of cheeky eating a week

 

So, I'm getting into the meat of my marathon training. Thankfully we have a "cool" front coming in tomorrow, that will make running a little more comfortable. I've stocked up on my energy gels for my long runs on the weekends. The one area I am having a little trouble in is diet. As a norm, I tend to be conscious of what I eat especially where carbs are concerned. But now I am getting to the point that I need those carbs to fuel my body. So I'm trying to find a balance that works in eating carbs but not overdoing it.

 

Well my marathon is out. I fractured my left ankle during a 17 mile workout in a rock in the road. I'm a bit peeved, my training was going so well
